\nInching Closer to the Goal<\/span><\/h2>\n

The controversial crypto project Pi Network aims to enable individuals to mine Pi coins directly from their mobile devices without significant energy consumption. This method seeks to make digital currency more accessible to a broader group of people, especially those who lack the resources for traditional mining setups.<\/span><\/p>\n

Despite being around for over five years, the project keeps raising eyebrows <\/span>due to the fact that<\/span> its<\/span> native token or open mainnet <\/span>are<\/span> not live yet. <\/span><\/p>\n

While the team has promised development <\/span>on the matter<\/span> in the following months, the community <\/span>is divided<\/span>. Some cheered the potential upcoming news, while others believe further advancement delays will occur. The biggest pessimists see Pi Network as a scam, claiming that the native token will never see the light of day.<\/span><\/p>\n

Earlier this year, the team maintained that the launch of the Open Network <\/span>will<\/span> happen once 15 million people had completed <\/span>necessary<\/span> Know-Your-Customer (KYC) procedures.<\/span> Most recently, the social media channel Pi News <\/span>disclosed<\/span><\/a> that completing the target needs just 1 million individuals since 14 million \u201cKYC pioneers\u201d have already been verified.<\/span><\/p>\n

At first, the developers advised people to pass verifications by the end of September, <\/span>later<\/span> extending<\/span><\/a> the deadline to November 30. The process is known as \u201cthe Grace Period.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Encouraging Validators<\/span><\/h2>\n

Shortly after announcing the deadline extension, Pi Network\u2019s team endured an influx in KYC requests and urged users to join as validators. Participants who\u00a0<\/span>contribute<\/span> accurately were <\/span>promised<\/span><\/a> Pi tokens as a reward for their efforts.<\/span><\/p>\n

The developers also released Pi Node Version 0.5.0, a development described as \u201ca major update preparing nodes for the mainnet blockchain.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThis update transitions Nodes to the Testnet2 blockchain, simulating the Mainnet environment and testing the switch between Testnet and Mainnet blockchains. The original Testnet will remain active for now but will soon close for Node use. Original Testnet will continue functioning as\u00a0normal for Pioneers and Pi app developers,\u201d the disclosure from last month <\/span>reads<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n
